What problem does it solve?
This tool provides a standalone root-cause tracer that captures an error, classifies it, traces the root cause, verifies hypotheses, and outputs a structured debug report. It does not implement fixes, tests, or commits. Use it to understand WHY something is broken before deciding how to fix it. Trigger when you want root-cause analysis only, such as when a user pastes an error and asks what causes it, or when you want to trace or diagnose a bug without fixing it. Do not trigger when you want the bug actually fixed (use /fix), you want to add tests (use /test), you are designing new features (use /design), or you want a design-level discussion (use /discuss).
Core Features & Use Cases
- Error capture and classification: collects error output and categorizes the failure.
- Root-cause tracing and hypothesis generation: presents 1–3 plausible root causes with supporting evidence.
- Non-destructive verification and reporting: produces a structured debug report and artifacts without modifying the codebase.
Quick Start
Paste an error log or provide a path to a log file and run the tracer to generate a root-cause report.
